I probably buy 100+ books per year, and read at least twice that number. Hard to really name them all.

I heard once that on average most people read one book a year. I must be reading a lot of other people's books.

I can read between 50 and 100 books in a year. I buy books every week, because I enjoy browsing the second hand shelves and finding ones I have not read and want to read. I always look for certain authors I enjoy, or whose works have been well reviewed. I read every day. I never watch TV, so I can devote a few hours in the evening to reading. I get much more from books than from watching movies or TV shows. I know more people are reading electronic versions of books now, and that may mean fewer printed books, but both forms will continue to be written, published and read.

i totally agree with u that we can get much more from books than watching tv cause reading can make us thinking a lot ,your thoughts can communicate with the author.and i do prefer to read books in the traditional way . ths for your reply,my friend:)

Dued to my job I have to read many books in one year, it may be up to 50. However, there's a library in my company, so I don't have to buy any one for professional aim. For recreative books, I can read them online or borrow them from the regional library, and so I don't spend any cent for them.

That is a penny-saving way to read the book:)no matter which ways u access to reading,acquiring information and knowledge is the most important thing we need to do in this changing ,quick-tempo world.

I love books and buy a lot, mostly reference books. But then when I have time I read too although lately I had too much to study and work so didn't have much time. At the moment I'm reading Perfume, I saw the movie last year so now decided to buy the book when I saw it in a bookstore.

we always buy some reference books to prepare well in orfer to pass the exam.that 's the most book we read in nowadays. i just buy the curious case of benjamin button by F.Scott Fitzgerald,it has been shot to film,but the feeling bring to u by reading is totally differet from watching film.

I couldn't read much because I still have to study because I'm still a student, and I have an online job at that so my time for reading (aside from textbooks) is very limited. Last year, I was only able to read about 15 novels and about a hundred short stories/fanfictions.
